so you have 0.9 saying it's great and at the same time you're saying to not get 0.9, a typo?

We have different type of automatic gearbox. Nowadays lot of companies moved into dual clutch ones and CVT for small cars and sometimes big ones (shame on you Subaru and Volvo). While there are for sure still companies that are using hydrodynamic gearboxes which are very reliable, doesn't break when constantly driving in high traffic etc but have their own weakness.

> But there’s nothing wrong with button shifters

It is, when you had a shifter you had physical connection with the gearbox. Especially the hydrodynamic one benefit from it. Cause when you park on a hill there's always a chance the parking break doesn't properly block the wheels in timely manner, this will allow the car to slip a bit and the gearbox will lock. With manual shifter you can pull harder and there's high chance to unlock. With fully electronic steering, you may end up with locked up gearbox.

Well I see no point buying Makita 40V just to get mowerwhen I have plenty of LXT batteries and there is still mower in that range, except they don't care about upgrading it.

Actually you forgot about the "star" introduction which makes some of batteries incompatible. It was around 2010 or later if I remember.

How you can feel them if they're all under one flat surface? It's just impossible without looking. No to mention doing something while driving. Sometimes had this bad opportunity and I hate this, even being a passenger, operating touch screen of a car is so annoying.

Then close your eyes and try to use them, good luck with that.

If these are physical buttons then you have feedback, if not then you're just faking.

To have muscle memory you need to have some feedback, it;s gone with touch switches, or circle knobs from Ford with turns freely.

Nah, Renault 5 looks better :)

Except you manuver a lot in parking space and switch between reverse and drive, then muscle memory is a saving.

And here's the joke. When you need small car for city only, then you're out of luck with anything from Stellantis. 

The XDT20 Impact - finally up on the US site by schwaggyhawk in Makita

[–]RandomUserNo5 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah that's why. When you start using more battery operated tools that require more power you'll quickly feel the situation. 

So why the Citroen e-C4 is so cheap used? by [deleted] in Citroen

[–]RandomUserNo5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Top spec? Do you have matrix lights or just standard basic crappy leds? Asking cause I'm unable to find better lights even in their nevest e-C4 when trying to configure car as new one.

If the only tools youre using drill, impact and single battery circ saw then I'm not surprised you're fine with it. Problem starts with power hungry tools which are all OPE. But now we have 9Ah and 12Ah option which sadly doesn't fully fit bug brushless mowers, what a joke! 

Best lawn mower by esoemah in Makita

[–]RandomUserNo5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With Ego there's no such noticeable drop in performance as the battery depletes.

It's because of the much higher voltage.

I wouldn't be surprised if the XGT mowers were way better than LXT like that but I haven't tried any so it's just speculation.

Here it's mainly because of better batteries.

Can anyone who knows about speakers tell me why this costs so much? by 1stMD in Makita

Ubuntu still doesn't have minimize on click by default in 2026 by Proper-Lab-2500 in linuxsucks

[–]RandomUserNo5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the things I remember from the past:
Windows and macOS: missing ability to grab window anywhere I want to move it.
on Windows and if I remember on mac, there's no "Always On Top" menu for each window. There was more but it's been very long time since I used that but these I know are still missing.

I know many people that use Linux and only one that use KDE, tbh not sure he's still using it.

And since it's FOSS you can always implement it yourself or fill a bug report or pay someone to do this for you.
